    I think he is referring to them playing tonight, while we don't play until tomorrow.:1980_boogie_down:

    Match has been postponed due to the River Don bursting its banks making access to the stadium a problem.

    DONT PANIC ! DONT PANIC! - They were due to play tonight but due to storm Babet causing the river Don near the Rotherham stadium to burst it's bank, the game has been CALLED OFF!!!

    Wagner at the presser yesterday:

    "The internationals all came back healthy. Nacho (Núñez) flew back last night, he'll be out on the grass for the first time today. Borja (Sainz), yes. Lungi (Sørensen) needs time. Grant is back in team training now as well. It's great to see him back after six months time, earlier than expected. But it's great to have his presence in the dressing room again. He will still need time though. For (Josh) Sarge, it's too early to predict with him. (Ashley) Barnes might be able to make the Cardiff game before the international break, it's too early to say but I won't rule him out. For sure, he'll be back after that November break."

    It's ironic that Byram is fit enough to potentially play against us.

    Byram wasn't a good fit for Wagner's tactics. Not sure that he's a very good fit for Farke's tactics either, though Daniel may have tweaked those since.

    We've got a lot of wide players that can hurt teams. Summerville will pla down the right with either Dan James, Jaidon Anthony or Willy Gnonto wide on the left. Shackleton and Ayling will fight it out for right back depending on whyat pace you have going down that wing.

    Byram has kept relatively fit since leaving Norwich, and seems competent enough at left back. Piroe plays a deeper role than what he did at Swansea, giving Rutter licence to cause problems up front but his finishing is no where as good. My pridiction 0-0 or 2-2

    But is Forshaw fit enough or good enough to play against Leeds (that's the kiss of death).

    After a blistering start to the season we have nose dived due to losing our best forwards , our away form has turned to **** but we are still pretty strong at home .

    Always liked Leeds & your board there's been some good banter over the years.

    Love Farke he got us playing scintillating attacking football on a shoestring budget , you've got yourself a gem there .
    He just can't couldn't cut it in the Premier league ,but he was on a hiding to nothing without £100m + to throw at the squad
